NBA Draft Watch: Simmons puts up crazy stat line Wednesday night

Ben Simmons accomplished a feat that hasn’t been accomplished in major college basketball in over 20 seasons Wednesday night against North Florida: a 40 point, 10 rebound, five assist game.

Simmons finished the night with 43 points, 14 rebounds, seven assists, five steals and three blocks in a extremely high scoring affair with the North Florida Ospreys (the Osprey is similar to a Seahawk) in which LSU escaped with a 119-108 victory.

The LSU basketball twitter account tweeted out the last two LSU players to score 43 points in a game, you may recognize the names…

Ben Simmons finished the night with 43 points. The last two Tigers to finish a game with exactly 43 points were Shaq and Pete Maravich.
